Any viewers watching FOX’s animated finales last night saw promos touting the return of the network’s Animation Domination lineup slated to premiere this Fall 2019. For those that don’t recall, FOX coined the Animation Domination name for their animation only Sunday Night line ups and did so for a number of years until the last couple or so that saw more live-action fare show up as part of the lineup. Other than Brooklyn 99 which subsequently moved to NBC, every Sunday Night live-action series for FOX has failed over the years which usually lead the network to air a bunch of rerun episodes of stalwarts like Bob’s Burgers, The Simpsons, and Family Guy. The last few months the network has been on a tear ordering additional animated series Bless the Harts, The Great North, and Duncanville. Bless the Harts will be FOX’s newest series that will premiere and it will do so by replacing Bob’s Burgers in the 830 pm ET slot which then has a domino effect as you’ll see in these listings. No premiere dates just yet, just the time slots.

Last night FOX had been teasing Bless the Harts with clips that they haven’t made available yet, but when they do, we’ll get ’em for ya. Duncanville and The Great North are both coming Mid-season 2019/2020.
